Water is one of the fastest growing economic sectors worldwide. The Cleveland Water Alliance wants to leverage one of Northeast Ohio’s greatest resources, Lake Erie, to aid in economic development while making sure the lake is protected. CWA executive director and president Byran Stubbs talked to The Landscape about how it partners with organizations to create opportunities to use water in innovative ways, as well as the many methods now available to monitor Lake Erie's health.
